To all whom-ii may. concern: Be'it known that I, JAMES D.

With these ends in View, thi's' invention, consists in the details ofvconstruction and combination of elements hereinafter set forth and thenspecifically designated by. the claimsJf v In order that those skilledinthe art to My invention improvement in door frames are tobe set instand how to make anduse the same, I will describe its constiuction indetail, referring;- by letter to the accompanying drawing form thisspecifica tion,wl1ich is aperspective View of a section 'of my improve:ment showing the cementplaced therein; In carrying out myinven'tion' ashere ernbodied, A represents studding, which are placed in a verticalposition a desired dis tance apart on necessary sills on thefour'idation walls, ()nthese studding are placed plates or caps toreceive 7 roof timbers, the other'necessaiy go sts such as floors arethen standing with the wall said wall'andalso a means what Iclaim as newand useful, is- 1. A mold for the manufacture of continon'one sideadove'tail B; and "at a suitable 1 v v v uous concrete walls'comprislnga line of distance from this dove tail onthe two sidesadjacent to said dove tail'areformed the grooves C and 0; thus leavingbetween the dings for locking-engagement withthe con- .icrete, means forclosing the spaces between said studdings comp)ris ing comparativelywhich is equalto the I I I narrow stri ut the opposing faces e boardsused inthe construcimprovement.
